Day 28 - Harp Mobile - HARPRIL 2026

Day 28 – Harp Mobile

“Can I help you?” the salesman asked.

“Yes… can you pull that SUV up, put the back seat down, and let me try my harp in it? If it fits, I’ll be back.”

That was my car-buying strategy. 😊

You can look up storage space online, but the way seats fold (or don’t) makes all the difference when you’re trying to fit a harp.

That first vehicle sold before we could go back for it, but shortly after, we found a Mazda5. I brought my harp, tried it out, and it fit perfectly. We test drove it, sat down to do paperwork… and another salesman came over asking for the keys because someone else wanted to test drive it.

That made me feel pretty good about the decision—especially since it was my first car.

I drove that Mazda for nine years and absolutely loved it.

In October 2025, it was hit at an intersection and totaled. Thankfully, my husbandand son were both okay—we are so grateful for that.

But still… it was hard. It may have “just been a car,” but it was my harp-mobile for along time.

After a lot of research (thankful for my husband on that one!), we ended up test driving a Chrysler Pacifica—and it checked every box.

This one fits both my harp and my children’s harp… and both car seats.

Just a few weeks after getting it, we were all able to load up and head to a Christmas concert together. That moment alone made it feel like such a gift.

​If you’re considering getting a harp, don’t forget to think about the “harp mobile” too.
